He found them. , less than five feet from the side of the road, hidden by low-lying shrubs. They were not marked, not deep, and not dignified.
Joseph McStay was a successful businessman in his 40s, running a custom water-fountain manufacturing company out of his home in Fallbrook, California. He had a beautiful wife, Summer (43), and two vibrant little boys: Gianni (4) and Joseph Jr. (3).
Unearthing the Truth: A Deep Dive into "Two Shallow Graves" The 2022 docuseries Two Shallow Graves: The McStay Family Murders revisits one of the most haunting true-crime mysteries in American history. For over a decade, the case of Joseph and Summer McStay and their two young sons, Gianni and Joseph Jr., has gripped the public—first as a baffling disappearance and later as a brutal homicide.

Merritt had acted as the self-appointed liaison between the family and the media. He pushed the "Mexico" narrative relentlessly, hoping police would stop looking. He even took over Joseph’s business after the disappearance, writing himself checks using Joseph’s signature stamp.
In January 2020, the judge sentenced Merritt to death. He was sent to San Quentin State Prison, where he remains on death row today.

At the same time, grainy surveillance footage from the Calexico-Mexicali border crossing emerged, showing a vehicle matching the McStays’ Isuzu Trooper crossing into Mexico on the day of the disappearance.
But there was no sign of struggle. No blood. No ransom note.
